One of the biggest push backs to economic development today is that it destroys nature. Radical organizations like Extinction Rebellion label capitalism and agriculture as evil. More specifically, they blame the fossil fuel industry and the rapid industrialization for the loss of ecosystems and habitats. On September 10, 2020, the Guardian UK ran an article which stated “Wildlife populations are in freefall around the world, driven by human overconsumption, population growth and … [Read more...]

Climategate: Ten years later
This month marks the tenth anniversary of “Climategate” – the release of thousands of emails to and from climate scientists who had been (and still are) collaborating and colluding to create a manmade climate crisis that exists in their minds and computer models, but not in the real world. The scandal should have ended climate catastrophism. Instead, it was studiously buried by politicians, scientists, activists, and crony capitalists, who will rake in trillions of dollars from the … [Read more...]
Developing Countries Must Bail out of the Climate Game
As obvious as it may sound, developing countries need more fast-paced development, not moral policing on matters of energy, development, and environment. The onset of the twenty-first century saw the international community coerce developing nations into adopting economy-choking environmental policies. Earlier environmental laws focused on more tangible and empirically verifiable environmental problems, like deforestation and toxic air and water pollution. But in recent decades, … [Read more...]
Dark, Dusty, and Developing: Climate Control Is the Last Thing We Want
This article was originally published on the Patriot Post on September 30, 2019. Despite decades of rapid economic growth, parts of India (where I live) remain severely underdeveloped. Though India has achieved energy surplus — producing more electricity than it consumes — it has yet to fix the country’s dodgy transmission network. Houses in villages remain unconnected to the main grid, and pockets of cities suffer blackouts from faulty transformers. I encounter literal darkness every … [Read more...]
Climate Change and the Battle for People’s Minds: Part 2 of Interview with “Christian Renewal” Magazine
The interview above was first published in the October 12, 2019 issue of Christian Renewal magazine (www.crmag.com) and is reproduced by permission. Part one of this interview was published on our website here. From the Ministry to the Climate and Some Points in Between You may have noticed the growing attention to the subject of climate change that continues to captivate the media. That is because a pact was agreed upon by over 250 media outlets to blitz people around the globe with … [Read more...]
The Tragedy of Greta Thunberg
Sixteen-year-old Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg lives in the healthiest, wealthiest, safest, and most peaceful era humans have ever known. She is one of the luckiest people ever to have lived. In a just world, Thunberg would be at the United Nations thanking capitalist countries for bequeathing her this remarkable inheritance. Instead, she, like millions of other indoctrinated kids her age, act as if they live in a uniquely broken world on the precipice of disaster. This is a … [Read more...]
How to Avoid Restrictive Climate Policies: Asian Giants Set the Example
With each passing year, nations are becoming sensitive to the fact that climate change is not as dangerous as it was believed to be. Crop yields continue to increase, life expectancy rates have gone up dramatically, and more importantly the temperature levels failed to follow the lead of carbon dioxide emissions. As a result, and the responsibility to meet growing domestic energy demands, countries are finding new ways to bypass the climate pressure from … [Read more...]
Reviving the Heart of the Earth: Energy Liberation in Africa
Poets call Africa the heart of the earth. It is, both geographically and biologically. Yet, it remains the most underdeveloped continent. Only a handful of nations in the continent have become economically competitive with their European counterparts. South Africa is one such nation. When it comes to economic development, Nigeria and South Africa are the two most developed nations in Africa. South Africa has everything that makes it comparable to a developed Western nation. Better standard … [Read more...]
The Elephant in the Room: Lack of Warming and the Eastern Coal Rampage
I’ve not seen the mainstream alarmist media in the U.S. questioning the on-going “coal boom” in the Eastern part of the world or defending America’s right to use fossil fuels. Instead, they’ve embarked on a climate scaremongering spree, gradually persuading the masses to embrace the lawmakers’ proposals for radical green policies that aim to reduce and even ban fossil fuel use. They justify this based on the supposed dangers of fossil fuels to the environment. … [Read more...]
